Question

What was the Triangular slave trade? Discuss the condition of the slaves in the
seventeenth century.

Answer 1

The best-known triangular trading system is the transatlantic slave trade that operated from the late 16th to early 19th centuries, carrying slaves, cash crops, and manufactured goods between West Africa, Caribbean or American colonies and the European colonial powers, with the northern colonies of British North.

In the 17th century, the triangular slave trade was conducted between Europe, Africa and the Americas. Since the 17th century, French merchants travelled from the ports of Bordeaux and Nantes to Africa where they bought slaves from the local chieftains. From there, the slaves were branded, shackled and sent off to the Caribbean to be sold off to the plantation owners. Such exploitation of the slaves from Africa made it possible for the European markets to flourish with commodities like sugar, indigo and coffee. Slavery played an important role in the prosperity of the port cities such as Bordeaux and Nantes. Even during the 18th century slavery was hardly criticised in France. It was during the reign of Jacobin regime that slavery was abolished in France.
